Kim Gregory , BACP

Kim Gregory is a trained and qualified therapist who works with adults, children, teenagers and young people. She practices in an integrative way, drawing on person-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques, solutions-focused ideas, psychodynamic perspectives and creative therapies so that her approach can be adapted to each individual. This flexibility reflects her view that no two counselling journeys are the same and that every person presents a unique set of needs and strengths.

She is described as warm, caring and easy to talk to, and she aims to create a supportive atmosphere in which clients can explore difficulties. Her style is collaborative - she listens carefully and works with clients to identify goals and priorities. While she will not shy away from challenge, she brings it in a gentle, investigative manner that helps people understand their thoughts, feelings and actions more clearly.

Sessions are guided by the client and tailored to what they want to achieve. Kim encourages open communication about how the work is going and welcomes feedback if an approach does not feel helpful. She is also available to respond to messages between sessions and aims to reply as soon as possible, ordinarily within 24 hours except when away on vacation. Kim holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which indicates membership of a professional counselling body.

Tailored Therapeutic Approaches for Online Sessions

Kim Gregory uses client-centred therapy to place the client at the heart of the work, offering empathic listening and support so people can explore their own values and find personal solutions to difficulties. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, and is often helpful for anxiety, stress, depression and practical coping skills. Mindfulness therapy offers simple practices to help people notice the present moment with more calm and clarity, supporting emotional regulation and stress reduction.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Kim works collaboratively with clients to determine what fits best. She will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs to tailor the work rather than insist on a single method, adapting as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online sessions - by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging - give flexibility to fit therapy around work, family and location. These options make regular contact and varied session styles possible, helping clients access support from licensed professionals in a way that suits their schedule and comfort.
